A building

In Santiago, there is one building wich is my favorite,  I think is beautiful, The National 

Library, I have gone sometimes in 2007, in particular because of PSU, that was a perfect place to study. This beatiful and big building was founded in 1813 under government  of politician and  soldier  José Miguel Carrera , the architect was Gustavo García Postigo, and together ¨Archivo Nacional¨, these buildings were inspirited in École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts or ENSBA from Paris.

I have walked a  lot of times close by this building, however, I have gone in a few times, the principal place is big, the desks and desk lamps are antiques of course, but very good maintained, it is beautiful. I see many people walking every day by there, and I am sure not much people go in, obviously we are very busy.

Surrounding the building there are some referents too as ¨Cerro Santa Lucia¨, ¨Universidad Católica¨,, and a modern building wich I like too ¨Centro Gabriela Mistral ¨ or ¨GAM¨ (ex Diego Portales)  wich offers ballet or contemporary dance, music concerts, stage play and art exhibitions. Definitely The National Library gives a distinct touch in the Santiago´s modern center.  

Bye bye
